Chapter 268: The Concubine's Succession 11
Ordinary people see the excitement, but the real experts can see the door at a glance, and the Luo family is focusing on participating in the competition for the place of this tribute. Tianshui City knew a little bit about the people who paid tribute, and they all knew the rules of the three families taking turns to sit in the village, so they didn't react.
If the Luo family intends to compete for the tribute brocade errand, they need to prepare a bright brocade with auspicious ornaments.
Gu Xiaoxiao had a prescient vision, and his eyes fell on the second son of the Luo family who was in charge of the Doujin Competition, he was wearing a azure straight coat, his hair was pulled up with a hosta, his eyes were narrow and his nose was slightly bulging, but he looked calm and introverted, without the impetuousness of a young man.
When the Luo family showed Mingguang Brocade, Luo Gongzi always maintained a warm and polite smile, and was not affected by the strange expressions of others. From his face, it was not clear that he had privately designed to frame the Tu Lan family.
The next to appear is the Yun family's Changle Mingguang Brocade, which is folded together and shimmers, and after it is unfolded, the cloud pattern is like flowing water, slightly shaking the cloud dragon and churning. "Changle Mingguang" is very imposing against the backdrop of phoenix birds, tigers and leopards. The blue base yellow-brown and crimson highlight the pattern, and the colors are bright and lively.
Everyone present exclaimed in unison, the Yun family's most famous Changle Mingguang Jinguo was truly worthy of its name. Gu Xiaoxiao looked at it carefully, the Tu Lan family launched the longevity Mingguang brocade this time, which is similar to the Yun family, but the color matching pattern is different.
Changle and longevity both mean auspiciousness, and longevity can better cater to the holy will, if it weren't for the Ming Guangjin of the Tu Lan family being polluted, this Dou Jin Conference should be the winner of the Tu Lan family.
When the master of ceremonies read out the name of the Tu Lan family, Gu Xiaoxiao keenly discovered that Luo Yun and the two families were in charge of the Doujin Competition. There was a hint of an inscrutable smile on his face.
They were waiting for the Tu Lan family to make a fool of themselves, Gu Xiaoxiao hated it so much that her teeth itched, and her eyes fell on the maid holding the longevity Mingguang brocade. Pity. Their ideas were doomed to fail, and she was prepared for nothing to go wrong.
The same Ambilight, longevity Mingguang brocade with camel gray, yellow-brown, blue-gray flowers, royal blue as the background of longevity brocade more solemn. Everyone present showed expressions of appreciation, but only the person in charge of the Luo Yun family quickly flashed a touch of surprise.
Yun Ling stared intently at the longevity bright light brocade in the maid's hand. It was almost flawless, and the hands and feet that he and the Luo family and Tu Lanyun had done privately before were obviously broken and exposed.
Damn it. Yun Ling and Luo Fang glanced at each other, and there was unwillingness in their eyes. At this moment, they all suspected Tu Lanyun, could it be that she was friendly and cooperative with them. It's all an illusion. The purpose is to confuse them and damage the strength of Luo Yun's two families. There was a difference between the tribute brocade and the ordinary silk business, and the two of them worked together to prepare the brocade needed for the tribute.
Even if the two are not selected, the silk fabrics that have been woven into the standard of tribute brocade cannot be outflowed. After six years, if there is a change in the direction of the imperial court, their goods will be folded in their hands.
At the end of the longevity Mingguang brocade display, the bead curtain opened. A white-faced bearded man dressed as an attendant, holding an orchid finger in his hand to convey the Winged King's commands.
"The Winged King has a word. Tu Lan longevity bright light brocade great goodness, reward. ”
The words of the waiter caused a commotion in the hall, Tu Lan Nanze showed a happy face, got up and bowed to the third floor, Gu Xiaoxiao followed suit, and quickly summed up the meaning of the Wing King in his mind.
As we all know, Yiwang Shen's holy favor has no intention of the dragon chair, loves to march and fight, and kills people decisively but rarely bullies Pingming, so he has a very high reputation among the people in the army. Such a big Buddha, running to the small place of Tianshui, also came to participate in the Doujin Conference, and rewarded a merchant, everywhere is strange.
Gu Xiaoxiao is not presumptuous, although she wants to carry forward the Tu Lan family, but for now, compared with the Luo family and the Yun family, the Tu Lan family can only be said to be on par, and there is no outstanding lead.
Even if this Doujin Conference, maybe the longevity Mingguang brocade is better than the Changle Mingguang brocade in terms of meaning, but in essence, their workmanship difficulty is similar. The Wing King only commended the Tu Lan family, and did not say anything to the Luo family and the Yun family, which made her inevitably confused.
But the prince's reward is a great honor for the Tu Lan family, and no matter what the meaning of the Wing King's actions is, they must accept it with joy. At least in recent years, the limelight of the Tu Lan family will definitely overshadow the Yunluo family. The Wing King did not participate in the battle for the heir, so he would not cause trouble to the Tu Lan family.
After saluting, Gu Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at Yun Ling and Luo Fang without evacuation, arching her hand towards them, and a smile on her lips. The two have reached the age of being independent, although they also accompanied the elders to arrive, but the Doujin Competition was arranged by the two.
Tu Lanxuan is very beautiful, and now she is at the age of young and tender, and she smiles like a spring breeze in April. But Yun Ling and Luo Fang darkened their faces at the same time, and the feeling of being fooled was even stronger. They underestimated the daughter army of the Tu Lan family before, and where would the people who could push out Mingguangjin go.
Thinking about Tu Lanyun and Tu Lanxuan both from the third room, the two couldn't help but ask themselves, will there really be a deep hatred between the sisters, will Tu Lanyun join forces with Luo Yun and the two to frame their own family because of unfair treatment?
If it were put on the two of them, they would never do anything to destroy the Great Wall. There is also the Wing King, when the Wing King first arrived in Tianshui City, the two mansions sent a generous salute, and at the same time, the self-aware did not hand over the invitation. The Wing King pushed all the money sent by the two families, and at the Doujin Conference, he showed goodwill to the Tu Lan family in front of everyone, like a slap on the two of them.
Next, the bead curtain on the third floor did not ring again, and the exquisite and gorgeous silk fabrics were hugged one by one. It's just that I've seen the intricate and exquisite gorgeousness of Mingguang brocade, even if it's a good cloud brocade, it's hard to arouse everyone's amazement at the beginning.
The further back you go, the more ordinary the brocade becomes, Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the Yun brocade of the Tu Lan family with her heart, and she didn't make any mistakes, so she was relieved and relieved.
The first day of the Doujin Competition is over, and the unexpected voice of the Wing King has made the Tu Lan family, which was already optimistic, a hot spot of everyone's support. On the one hand, the longevity of the Tu Lan family, Mingguang Jin, is indeed very good, and on the other hand, because everyone is a smart person, the Wing King is optimistic about the Tu Lan family, can they not be optimistic.
Tu Lan Nanze was in a better mood than ever, but he thought of what his granddaughter said in his ear before. His face darkened again, and he planned to investigate thoroughly when he returned.
As soon as the two of them left the restaurant, a Tsing Yi guard suddenly appeared in front of Tu Lan's carriage. Tu Lan Nanze recognized at a glance that this was the person next to the Wing King, hurriedly stopped his steps, and bowed his hand to the guards respectfully.
The seven-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door and the guards under the Wing King are not something that these merchants can offend, and it is not strange that many people are courteous.
The guard looked very young, but his figure was tall and his eyes were resolute, with the unique slaughter of the frontier sergeant, he returned a salute to Tu Lan Nanze and said: "The prince has heard that Tu Lan silk fabric is famous all over the world. Today, when I saw it, I deserved the fame, and I intended to go to Tu Lan's house to have a look. “
The guard's expression was cold, and he repeated the words of the Wing King in a flat tone, and Tu Lan Nanze listened carefully to his words. It was as if a thousand gongs were ringing in my head. Such a big pie fell from the sky, even if he lived half his life and buried half of it, there was still a sense of disbelief.
Gu Xiaoxiao saw that Tu Lan Nanze was in a daze at this time, and hurriedly pretended to be inadvertent. Touched him on the shoulder.
"The prince is loved. The small people were grateful, and told the adults, and the small people swept the couch to greet each other, waiting for the prince at any time. ”
Tu Lan Nanze woke up like a dream, and what he said was more than just the scene, his eyes were really red when he was old and encountered a good thing that fell from the sky. Ecstasy rushed to his heart, and Tu Lan Nanze took out the silver ticket from his sleeve. He handed his hands to the guard and said, "My lord has worked hard, and a little care is not a respect." ”
Tianfeng Kingdom is the same as ancient China in Gu Xiaoxiao's impression. No matter where you are, you can't go wrong with paying respect.
Unexpectedly, the guard declined Tu Lan Nanze's respect, and turned to leave after giving a clear account of the Wing King's orders.
From a guard, Gu Xiaoxiao has a better understanding of the Wing King, he is really as incorruptible as rumored, disgusted with corrupt officials who loot the people's fat and ointment, and disgusted with the evil officials who manipulate the military salary.
With such a super golden thigh, shouldn't she take this opportunity to find a way to hug it.
Tu Lan Nanze was a little incoherent with joy, sitting in the carriage, with a red light on his face, and told Gu Xiaoxiao the story of the past of the Tu Lan family - the glory of the Tu Lan family when the country was founded.
After hundreds of years of stories, Gu Xiaoxiao was so drowsy that she almost fell asleep without giving face. When she was about to arrive at the mansion, she interrupted Tu Lan Nanze's words: "Grandfather, there are still two days left in the Doujin Conference, should we clean up those things that eat inside and outside." ”
Gu Xiaoxiao's words were like a basin of cold water, waking Tu Lan Nanze from his frenzy. The wrinkles on his face have not disappeared, and there is a little more solemnity between his eyebrows, half of his face is smiling and half of his face is serious, which looks a little funny.
"This kind of eating inside and outside things, once it is verified, it will be done immediately!"
For the Tu Lan family, the battle for tribute brocade is as important as a sacrificial event. Once every three years, it can only be the turn every six years, the Tu Lan family has been preparing for this for six years, if it fails, the reputation will be damaged, not to mention, a large number of silk fabrics prepared according to the requirements of the tribute brocade must be backlogged in their hands.
This time is even more significant than before, the Wing King participated in the Doujin Conference, and he has a good eye for Tu Lanjia. Tu Lan Nanze didn't dare to imagine what the scene would be today if the longevity Mingguang brocade was destroyed. Will the Winged King cure them for a sin of disrespect, and the loss of today's glory will bring disaster.
Yes, it must be done immediately, Tu Lan Nanze made a decision.
After getting out of the carriage, Gu Xiaoxiao looked up at the plaque hanging above her head, and her steps were brisk. The fact that Tu Lan's family got the blue eyes of the Wing King today has long spread in the city, and there is a joyful atmosphere in the mansion, just like the New Year.
But because of Tu Lan Nanze's gloomy face, they didn't dare to be too cheerful, so they could only suppress the joy and serve carefully.
Gu Xiaoxiao saw that everyone's joy was diluted by Tu Lan Nanze, and after coughing and getting Tu Lan Nanze's attention, he said: "Grandfather, the house is very happy today, should it be rewarded or rewarded, after all, the Wing King is very likely to come to the mansion in person, and if the people in the mansion are too cowardly, I am afraid that the prince will be disappointed." Those who want to do it today are just small people who can't get on the table, so don't take it to heart. ”
The granddaughter's persuasion made Tu Lan Nanze stunned for a moment, and then his tightly knit brows opened. It's because he's too careless, it's rare that the Wing King values the Tu Lan family, he should start to meet the Wing King first, and the people in the mansion are overjoyed and put on a worried appearance, which is really a big surprise.
As a result, Tu Lan Nanze ordered the whole house to reward three months of money. After getting the reward, the maid and the servant really looked the same again.
Most of the people in the house were rewarded, and a small number were apprehensive.
Tu Lanyun has been waiting today, holding the embroidery screen in her hand and completely absent-minded, and she doesn't care if she makes a mistake. It was her regret that she couldn't attend the Doujin Conference with Tu Lan Nanze, but she felt happy when she thought that the Tu Lan family would be expelled from the tribute today.
It's just that at noon, Tu Lanyun's good mood was completely dissipated by the news that came, and she was so happy, how could it be like something went wrong at the Doujin Conference. Sure enough, Tu Lanyun heard the praise of the Wing King for his longevity and bright light.
Why is this happening, Tu Lanyun was a little uneasy, her prediction seemed to be skewed, and it was deviating in an unpredictable direction. The Wing King came to Tianshui City a few years in advance, and showed interest in the Tu Lan family, how should she deal with it.
Tu Lanyun's heart was upset, her hand was pricked by an embroidery needle, and red blood beads poured out, and the bad omen made her very uneasy.
"Fourth Miss, the old lady invites you to come over."
The sun was setting in the west, and Tu Lanyun came to the boudoir with a girl in Tsing Yi, her face was as calm as water, and she couldn't see the clues.
At the same time, in the Fulu Courtyard, Tu Lan Nanze's face was as black as charcoal at the bottom of the pot, and a horse was thrown on the ground at random with an undamaged cloud brocade. The fine brocade, which should have been carefully stored, was still on the ground, and the black-and-yellow stains of oil were conspicuous.
Tu Lan Nanze's chest rose and fell, and the maid and the little maid who were crying and screaming before were blocked with rags in their mouths, and they were tied up by the five flowers, and finally settled down.
As soon as Tu Lanyun stepped into the lobby with her front feet, a teacup was thrown at her face, she subconsciously dodged, and the teacup hit the doorpost, and it turned into pieces with a bang, which shows how big the throwing manpower is.
"Evil beast, you evil beast still has the face to stand here! Are you right, the ancestors and ancestors who live in the Tu Lan family, how did my Tu Lan family give birth to such a bastard thing as you. ”
Even if Gu Xiaoxiao had tried to make Tu Lan Nanze calm down his anger for the time being, so as not to be too angry later, he would not be able to deal with Tu Lanyun if he turned his back on his anger.
Tu Lan Nanze saw that the cup didn't hit Tu Lanyun's face was even darker, and he could drip ink by twisting it, he grabbed a vase on the table and was about to throw it over.
"This is a white kiln treasure!"
Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly reminded, reached out and hugged the porcelain bottle, and smashed Lan Yun She had no opinion, but the violent destruction of the heavenly things made her feel distressed.
Besides, if Tu Lan Nanze smashed Tu Lanyun over, how should she interrogate, she didn't want to drag it out any longer. (To be continued......)
